More than 200 flights have already been cancelled.

Aer Lingus and pilots’ representatives are to attend meetings at Ireland’s Labour Court on Tuesday as efforts intensify to avert planned industrial action.

Pilots are seeking a pay increase of 24%, which they say equates to inflation since the last pay rise in 2019. Both sides described that move as “positive” and said they were hopeful that they could meet this week.Aer Lingus had previously branded the pilots’ industrial action “insidious” and compared it to “blackmail”, while pilots accused the company of threats and “antagonism”.

The LEEF is made up of representatives from the Government, employers and trade unions and is used to facilitate dialogue on economic and employment issues affecting the labour market. Ireland’s deputy premier Micheal Martin was asked about the issue as he attended a meeting in Luxembourg on Monday morning.
